Louis Vuitton and the Economic Crisis

By Georgina Grant


For males and females alike, wearing Louis Vuitton handbags show the world you have clout and style. Established in 1854, the Louis Vuitton name is one of the oldest and biggest in the industry. They've done everything, from inventing the world's first flat-bottomed suitcase, to manufacturing the most iconic monogrammed fabric in the market. They continue, despite the most severe recession of the past 60 years, to flourish and draw the right crowd. Marketing can certainly be said to play a factor in their success, with middle class heroes such as Buzz Aldren and Sean Connery advertising LV bags in the past few seasons. Marc Jacobs has also made a huge impact drawing in the company's younger crowd as he executes his role as Louis Vuitton's fashion director with grace. It looks like Louis Vuitton handbags are here to stay.

One of the things I have come to like most about the Louis Vuitton Galliera handbag is its compactness. Not being a fun of those huge and seemingly (to me) unwieldy handbags - yet still wanting to have a handbag in which I could fit all the stuff a woman needs, the LV Galliera turned out to be just what I wanted; in terms of a compromise between compactness and adequacy of carrying space in a handbag.

Measuring about 16 inches by 11 inches by 6 inches, the Louis Vuitton Galliera is clearly huge enough to fit all stuff that is reasonably supposed to go into a handbag, yet small enough to appear 'cute.' Another highly attractive feature in the Louis Vuitton Galliera, besides its exquisite compactness-adequate storage comprise, one has to admit, is the wide shoulder strap it comes with - which is also length adjustable, making it 'a bag for all seasons,' that is, a bag that you can carry when you are looking for a low hanging or high hanging accessory equally well.

One answer to the economic crisis is to purchase a LV replica! A high quality, detail oriented LV replica handbag won't be disappointing. Handbag reproduction has become an exact science. Despite the best efforts of Vuitton himself and subsequently his son to make various patents on their fabric and designs, replicating them has become easy thanks to advances in technology and the falling costs of textiles. Wherein the past, "substitute" materials were used such as plastic, premium leathers can now be found at minimal cost to the manufacturer.

Another prominently noticeable feature in the LV Galliera has to be the magnetic closure mechanism with which it comes, which thus effectively does away with the stressful button-closing business. This is a great feature, many handbag users would admit, since the buttons (where they are employed) do tend to malfunction at some point as time goes on, whereas the magnetic closure mechanism on the LV Galliera is sure to last for as long as the bag is in use, and beyond.

After the luggage range was set up, the Company started to diversify a range of purses for ladies. Very soon the Ambre Louis Vuitton handbag followed it. When it was first produced, it had become as popular as how it is today. It is made with quality soft leather and monogrammed with the LV's seal.

Yet another attractive feature I have noted with LV Galliera is the studs (specifically those signature LV Inventeur studs) that it comes with on its bottom, supposedly to protect the bag at its base. This is a great feature, because as any experienced handbag users will aver, the ultimate damage that sees an otherwise great handbag having to be written off is damage to the handbags base, especially for handbags that don't come with this type of base studs.
